Ruritan March 2024 Newsletter

Harassment Policy (continued)

Any reported allegations of harassment or discrimination will be investigated promptly, thoroughly, and impartially. Anyone found to be engaged in any form of sexual or other unlawful harassment shall be subject to appropriate disciplinary action. Each investigation is to be thoroughly documented; all documents are to be kept secured at the level the investigation was conducted (Club, District, National records); with a complete copy forwarded to the National Office. Retaliation Prohibited: RURITAN NATIONAL expressly prohibits retaliation against any individual who reports discrimination or harassment or assists in investigating such charges. Any form of retaliation is considered a direct violation of this policy and, like discrimination or harassment itself, may be subject to appropriate disciplinary action. Disciplinary Action : Disciplinary action at RURITAN NATIONAL is intended to fairly and impartially correct behavior early on and to prevent recurrence. RURITAN NATIONAL reserves the right to administer disciplinary action at its discretion and based upon the circumstances.
